Intimidation Clothing and Cleveland, Ohio-based pro bantamweight Jerrell Hodge are pleased to announce the release of the latest signature tee from Intimidation – the Jerrell “Thunderkat” Hodge signature shirt. Hodge (0-1 pro, 11-1 amateur) is expected to fight professionally for the second time at NAAFS: Caged Vengeance 16 on March 7th, 2015, in Canton, Ohio. Pre-orders on the new “Thunderkat” shirts are underway at a special, discounted price.

Just 25 years old, Hodge was widely considered to be perhaps the best pound-for-pound amateur fighter in the state of Ohio, if not the entire Midwest, prior to his pro debut in June 2014. The Evolve MMA product is a 2-time NAAFS national series amateur champion, becoming the first fighter since Team Intimidation’s George Comer to accomplish that feat in 2 separate divisions. Hodge was also the EFP amateur featherweight champion, as he claimed that title with a second round submission over Ethan Goss in January 2014, and he closed out his amateur career with a victory over Rich Cantolina in March 2014 to become the Pinnacle FC amateur featherweight champion. In his extensive amateur MMA career Hodge fought many of the best at 135 & 145lbs and has wins over notable pros Shane Valko (1-0 pro) and UFC bantamweight Cody Garbrandt (6-0 pro).

Intimidation Clothing and Indiana-based pro lightweight Dustin Parrish are pleased to announce the release of the latest signature tee from Intimidation – the Dustin “Bam Bam” Parrish signature shirt. Parrish, now 2-0 as a pro thanks to a perfect 2014 campaign, will seek a 3rd straight win to start his pro career on February 21st fighting for Collosseum Combat MMA in Kokomo, Indiana. Pre-orders on the new “Bam Bam” shirts for anyone wanting to have it in time for Dustin’s February 21st fight end at 12:01 am on Tuesday, February 3rd.

Parrish (pictured below on the left with Eddie Bravo), who hails from Indiana, boasted an impressive 9-1 record as an amatuer and is one of the fastest-rising stars on the Midwest MMA scene. Now training at American Top Team in Indianapolis, Parrish got his start in MMA after going to a local martial arts school just to take a break from wrestling. He began his amateur MMA career in 2011 at just 18 years old, and he quickly rattled off 7 wins in 7 outings over his first two years as a fighter. All 7 of those wins came via stoppage, with the first 6 coming in the first round.

Now training with Carlos Diaz of American Top Team and Myron Greber of Iron Horse Martial Arts, Parrish still trains with his brother and wrestling coach Ryan Parrish at Contenders Wrestling Academy. His well-rounded training is the key to his success, as he has posted 3 TKO victories to go along with 5 submissions in his 9 wins. Parrish won both of his first two professional fights in 2014 with a decision win in April for the MFS and a submission victory in November for Legends of Fighting.

Perhaps the most valuable part of Parrish is his marketability, as he is very social media savvy and is one of the best fighters at promoting the Intimidation Clothing brand via Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and more. Fans can follow him on Twitter @BamBam_155.

Fighting out of the Leading Edge Gym in Thunder Bay, Ontario, “Kid Lightning” is a Bellator MMA veteran with wins over notables Morgan Sickinger (17-8), WEC vet Courtney Buck, top prospects Melvin Blumer (11-2) and Marvin Blumer (11-4).

Long-time Team Intimidation member Isaiah “The Beast” Chapman is set to make his World Series of Fighting debut at WSOF 13 in Philadelphia. Chapman (6-1) is set to face Timur Valiev (7-1) in a main card bout on Saturday, September 13, and the fight will air live on the NBC Sports Network.

Sporting board shorts again from Intimidation Clothing, Chapman returned to the cage in March after a layoff of 11 months, stemming from a shoulder injury that he suffered in his only pro loss against Bryan Goldsby. Chapman put on an impressive performance at “Driven MMA One,” earning a clear-cut unanimous decision over the tough Charles Stanford. He then returned to action at the annual “Fight Nite in the Flats X” event in Cleveland in June, earning a dominant unanimous decision victory over American Top Team product Andrew Whitney to improve his record to 6-1.

There were rumors that the win over Whitney would earn Chapman a spot on the national stage, and those rumors rang true as he signed a deal with WSOF last month to make his debut. The organization has quickly become one of the most respected in the country, running regular events on NBC and the NBC Sports Network.

Chapman dominated the Ohio MMA amateur division for two years in a row, winning the NAAFS Amateur National Title in both 2010 and 2011 before turning pro in 2012. “The Beast” hit the ground running in 2012, winning four fights that year and being named as the 2012 Ohio Fighter of the Year by OHMMA.com. A product of Unique Fitness & Rock Hard MMA in Akron, Ohio, an official Intimidation dealer, Chapman has been sponsored by the popular brand since midway through his successful 12-1 amateur career. Intimidation also released an official Isaiah Chapman signature t-shirt in 2013 (pictured on Isaiah, right), which is on sale for fans of “The Beast.”

Intimidation Clothing continued a busy month of June this past weekend in Ohio, as Intimidation recorded a monster night at Coveted Fighting Championship 3 East of Cleveland in Mentor, Ohio.

The story of the night was the co-main event, where longtime Team Intimidation member George “Bonesaw” Comer (5-1) dominated Joe Lile (5-2) en route to his fifth consecutive victory. The bout was billed as a match-up of two of the top lightweight prospects in the Midwest, but Comer was dominant throughout the 15 minutes on his way to earning a clear-cut decision victory scored 30-27 by all three judges. The win puts Comer (pictured w/Intimidation CEO Luke Jernigan) even closer to contention for a spot in a national organization.

In addition to Comer’s successes inside the cage, the new “Bonesaw Nation” signature shirt (pictured, on George, left) from Intimidation was a popular item at the Intimidation booth all night. Upon making its debut, the sales of the tee continues Comer’s climb as one of the most popular Team Intimidation fighters.

Intimidation will be back in action next weekend, sponsoring Stateline MMA’s second annual “Clarksville BMF Invitational” in Clarksville, Tennessee. Along with that event, Intimidation’s Michigan crew will be at another Mad Men Promotions event in Hillsdale, Michigan.

Just three episodes into Season 19 of The Ultimate Fighter the name Daniel “Dragon” Spohn is one that is quickly becoming one of the stars of the season. Spohn’s TUF 19 experience has been quite memorable after leading off the season premier with a devastating 30-second knockout for one of the fastest knockouts in the history of The Ultimate Fighter leading Frankie Edgar to say it was “one of the nastiest knockouts I’ve ever seen in my life.” He followed that with his first fight after getting into the house by defeating Todd Monaghan by unanimous decision to advance in the tournament.

The new Dragon Spohn tee, which has the concept previewed to the left, will be released in late May/early June 2014 and will indeed feature Dragon imagery to represent Daniel Spohn’s nickname. More details on the design will be released in the coming weeks and pre-orders are currently underway for the Dan Spohn signature tee at IntimidationClothing.com.

A long-time member of Team Intimidation, Dan “Dragon” Spohn, has been a staple of the brand since his early days as a professional Mixed Martial Artist.

Spohn now makes his home in Columbus and holds victories over UFC veteran Josh Hendricks, John Hawk and current NAAFS Light Heavyweight Champion & now TUF 19 vet Josh Stansbury.

Intimidation Clothing and professional MMA featherweight Bobby Emmons are proud to announce the release of the latest addition to Intimidation’s signature t-shirt line. The Bobby “White Trash BJJ” Emmons signature tee is now available for pre-orders at IntimidationClothing.

A purple belt in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, Emmons preference is no-Gi. His grappling style is so unorthodox, when people would ask Bobby about the different things he does he would jokingly them it was “White Trash BJJ,” and years later the phrase has just stuck. A professional Mixed Martial Artist competing primarily in the featherweight (145lb) division, Bobby Emmons holds a 3-3 record and was one of Intimidation’s first sponsored fighters in the state of Indiana. A product of Loogootee, IN, Emmons is coming off of a loss to UFC veteran Dustin Neace in the main event at Colosseum Combat XXIV last March. A highly entertaining figure whose brash sense of humor is apparent on Twitter & Facebook, Emmons went on a 3-fight winning streak after dropping his pro debut, and was scheduled to compete on the March 1, 2014 Colosseum Combat MMA card before suffering an injury.

A veteran of many of the top local MMA promotions in the Midwest, Emmons has fought for the Indiana-based Hoosier Fight Club and the Intimidation-sponsored Colosseum Combat and NAAFS promotions as a professional. As an amateur, Emmons also competed for the nearby HookNShoot promotion as well as the Las Vegas-based Tuff-N-Uff and is a regular at HookNShoot MMA events in and around Evansville, Indiana.
